In Drama last lesson I role played as the over protective and sensible best friend. As the best friend I felt happy for Lady Mary but I was a little bit curious on what Mr Fox was like? Is he who he says he is? Is he the right guy? Or is he a liar? I still don’t know but I’m yet to find out. My character’s voice comes across very confident, very English, got a little accent and sometimes it can come across very soft. Every time my character spoke for too long she began to lose her little accent and go out of tone. She also has a habit of liking to twiddle her hair with her finger and sometimes it puts her of track and she sometimes forgets what she was saying. My character walks just like a normal person. She walks very casual. She sometimes walks with a strut. The reason for this description is that whenever I imagine best friends I think about how cool they are and how caring they can be. I also imagine them sometimes with a habit like twiddling their hair many of times. I can’t wait to get back in role at being Lady Mary’s best friend.
